VINCENT FRONT FORKS and PARTS
Complete Brampton Forks, original - $4795, same price as my forks.
I had to replace the riser caps, fork links, and F55 with my chromoly steel parts. The supplied reproduction parts were awful.
The 4 swaged fork tubes were replaced by Ray Danials of the UK. Fork is straight. Choice of chromed steel knobs or polished aluminum.
